Culture Shock

I just had my lunch and am back in the Kaohsiung office. Surrounding me are five taiwanese colleagues taking their short afternoon naps. Very weird. One is slumped on the sofa while the other four are snoozing away with their heads on the work desk. How weird is that?!?! And here I am, the only "foreigner" working...really hush...Can hear the tapping of my keyboard as I am writing this entry.

I head to the toilet and I am in a sea of darkness. Everyone is sleeping!!! Feels like I am in a twilight zone. Very weird.

Why wasn't I enlightened on such a culture norm?
